Good and Good for You Beans and Greens on virginiawillis.com

Beans and Greens are the pinnacle of good and good for you eating. Every cuisine in the world has some form of this classic combination. This version is an Italian-Cajun-Appalachia mash-up. The best part is that canned beans make for easy preparation and clean-up.

Adding a cup of chopped collards and a handful of baby kale at the end of cooking is a great way to bump up the nutritional content. Try adding a handful to soups of all kinds or mashed or roasted sweet potatoes. (Remember, the good and good for you approach is about health GAIN not just weight loss!)

Beans and greens are good mood food and can greatly benefit your digestive system.  Read on for more about the role your gut plays in your mental health and well-being — plus how saying something as simple as “That color looks great on you” can make your day.
